the appraisal jack whitten

The article reports on the Museum of Modern Art's retrospective "Jack Whitten: The Messenger," which runs through August 2 and features 175 works including paintings, sculpture, and archival materials. Curator Michelle Kuo describes Whitten's "endless innovation," noting that art handlers were astonished by his pioneering techniques. Whitten, who died in 2018 at age 78, moved from Alabama to New York in 1960, attended Cooper Union, and was influenced by jazz and figures like Willem de Kooning and Romare Bearden. The article also examines Whitten's art market, highlighting his auction record of $2.66 million for "Special Checking" (1974) at Sotheby's in 2019, and noting that while prices are rising, his work remains undervalued compared to peers like Gerhard Richter.

state of the art market old masters and neo old masters

Artnet News, in collaboration with Morgan Stanley, analyzed auction data from the Artnet Price Database to assess the state of the European Old Master market since 2018. The investigation explores how efforts to contemporize Old Masters—through juxtapositions at art fairs like TEFAF and Masterpiece London, and gallery shows such as David Zwirner's 'Endless Enigma'—have correlated with market trends for Contemporary and Ultra-Contemporary artists whose work is visibly influenced by classical European art. The report also examines the impact of living artists inspired by Old Masters, suggesting that restricting analysis to historical works alone may underestimate their ongoing influence on the art market.

At Independent, Joel Mesler’s ‘Death Wish’ Is Part Art Exhibit, Part Market Experiment

Joel Mesler, a former gallerist turned artist, is debuting a new series of figurative paintings titled “Interiors” at the Independent art fair under the deliberately strange name “Joel Mesler Presented by The Estate of Joel Mesler.” The project includes only 12 paintings, which will not be sold through a gallery sales team; only Mesler himself and his former dealer David Kordansky can sell the work. Mesler describes the presentation as part art exhibit, part controlled market experiment, reflecting his frustration with the contemporary art market's loss of intimacy and unpredictability.
